Vietnam is home to many beautiful and expansive places with a cool breeze to help you relax after days of hard work. However, the destinations below will send shivers down your spine even if you just pass by.
Bone Pool at Thay Pagoda in Hanoi
The historical Thay Pagoda site in Quoc Oai district, Hanoi, is renowned for the mysterious Cave of Whispering Echoes and a bone pool within. According to legends passed down through generations, upon the discovery of the cave, countless skeletons were found stacked on top of each other, believed to be the remains of noble warriors defeated by the enemy in the 14th and 15th centuries.
No matter whose bones lie here, this place remains a destination that sparks curiosity and challenges the bravery of travelers as they witness a bone pool in the pitch-black, chilling depths of a cave.
Vinh Biet House at Cho Ray Hospital
Little known to many, Cho Ray Hospital has a house dedicated to housing the bodies of deceased patients with no family to claim them, known as the “Vinh Biet House.” Located on Thuan Kieu Street, District 5, Ho Chi Minh City, amidst the bustling and noisy buildings of Cho Ray Hospital, Vinh Biet House stands quietly in solitude and tranquility.
Patients who pass away without family will be brought here and preserved for 30 days. If after this period no one claims the remains, the hospital will proceed with cremation. All expenses for Vinh Biet House are covered by the hospital's charity fund.
It's no coincidence that Vinh Biet House has become one of the most 'haunting' locations in Saigon. Everyone knows that Cho Ray Hospital is among the oldest establishments in Saigon, and it attracts a high concentration of patients with difficult-to-treat illnesses. Farewells are a common occurrence at Cho Ray Hospital.
Moreover, locals often share tales of the 'hospital ghosts,' and most of them linger around Vinh Biet House. According to those nearby, the deceased housed in Vinh Biet House have no loved ones to bid them farewell. Despite departing, they continue to suffer in solitude, with no one by their side, no one to guide them back to the earth.
'Haunted Village' in Ha Tinh
Nestled beneath the Hong Linh mountain range, Vượng Lộc village, now known as Vượng Suy, with over 100 residents, has become an eerie place. Over the past decade, for reasons unknown, many once healthy individuals suddenly fell ill and passed away in a very short period. The mysterious deaths were so numerous that they invoked fear. In the face of these mysterious deaths, some elderly villagers mentioned that the village is situated on a 'dragon vein.' When people settled here, they violated the sacred territory, incurring the wrath of spiritual entities.
The villagers still can't shake off the shock from those mysterious deaths. Faced with inexplicable demises, they turn to the village's haunting rumors. According to villagers, in recent years, 5 to 6 people die each year under mysterious circumstances. These are individuals who were perfectly healthy and suddenly succumbed to a strange illness.
These fateful deaths primarily target those in their middle years. The incidents have instilled deep fear in individuals aged 35 to 50. Since these events unfolded, no one in the surrounding areas dares to visit Vượng Suy village alone, fearing malevolent spirits. The haunting continues, disrupting the lives of the villagers. To escape the 'harvesting of death,' many families have relocated to new residences.
Abandoned Mansion in Da Lat
The historic mansion atop the Prenn Pass in Da Lat never fails to captivate the curious minds eager to unveil the mysteries woven into its tales.

Even though information about the mysterious incidents related to the house remains unverified, this location consistently sparks the curiosity of young people from surrounding areas whenever they visit Da Lat for tourism.
